Floor mat flips up over clutch and brake pedal sometimes when shifting gears. Can cause accidental brake application when shifting gears. Eyelet securing mat to floor separates from mat after a few months of usage. Allows floor mat to shift forward and the front edge of the mat catches the clutch pedal. When the pedal is depressed, the mat catches the pedal and flips up over the brake and clutch pedal. Pressing the clutch again will also engage brake. When operating vehicle on Feb 25, 2010, two times the brakes applied when shifting gears due to the mat interference. The second time the vehicle skidded out of a turn and damaged the front right wheel and tire when hitting a curb. The mat was removed to prevent further problems. Vehicle was inoperable after incident.
